anastasios Posted May 22, 2007 Report Posted May 22, 2007 hey guys any easier way to get the wheel bearings out without using a big sledge? i know you could use a press but don't have one of those Quote
AE25 Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 had any luck removing bearings? with the hub removed from the strut.. pick the inner seal out. the bearing should fall out and then the inner bearing shell needs to be tapped out with a soft metal pin punch .. brass, copper, aluminium etc.. there should be a small notch on the inside hole that the pin punch can sit into so it gets in behind the bearing shell. you need to tap them on opposite sides so they come out parrallel to the hub. putting the new bearings in requires you do not damage the shells in any way.. i usually grind the old shells that came out so they are slightly smaller in diameter and use them to push the new bearing shell in.
